What is the Figma Integration?

The Figma integration bridges the gap between design and development by connecting your design files directly to YouWare’s AI. Using Figma’s “Copy link to selection” feature, you can point our AI to any component, section, or entire page in your design. The AI then analyzes the visual context to generate pixel-perfect web code.

Design-First Approach

Use your Figma designs as the blueprint for precise AI code generation

Pixel-Perfect Output

Generate HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that matches your designs exactly

Instant Conversion

Turn design mockups into functional web pages within minutes

​
Key Benefits

Accelerated Development

Design-to-Code VelocityTransform design concepts into working prototypes and production code in minutes, drastically reducing development time.

Perfect Accuracy

Pixel-Perfect CodeThe AI uses your Figma design as a blueprint, eliminating manual work to match code to design specifications.

Team Collaboration

Seamless WorkflowDesigners and developers work in parallel, with the design file serving as the single source of truth for AI generation.

​
Setup Your Figma Access Token

You need a Personal Access Token (PAT) to connect Figma. This token allows YouWare’s MCP to securely access your design files via the Figma API.
1

Access Profile Settings

Click on your avatar in the top-left corner of Figma and select Settings from the dropdown menu.
2

Navigate to Security

In the Settings page, select the Security tab and scroll down to the Personal access tokens section.
3

Generate New Token

Click the Generate new token button to create a new access token.
4

Configure Token Settings

Set up your token with the following configuration:
  • Token Name: YouWare MCP (or any recognizable name)
  • Expiration: 90 days (recommended for security)
  • Required Scopes:
    • file_content:read
    • file_dev_resources:read
    • projects:read
5

Save Token Securely

Copy the token immediately after generation - you won’t be able to see it again!

​
Best Practice: Section-by-Section Conversion

For optimal results, convert your Figma designs section by section rather than converting entire pages at once.

​
Why This Approach Works

Higher Accuracy

AI focuses on specific details of each section for precise code generation

Better Structure

Each section gets properly organized code with clean boundaries

Easier Debugging

Quickly identify and fix issues in specific sections

Faster Iterations

Iterate rapidly on your designs and see them live immediately | Fast feedback loop | Fast feedback loop | Fast feedback loop

​
Implementation Process

1

Select Design Section

In Figma, select a specific section (header, hero, features, footer, etc.)
2

Copy Section Link

Right-click and choose “Copy link to selection”
3

Generate Code

Paste the link into YouWare and let the AI generate that section’s code
4

Repeat for Each Section

Continue this process for each major section of your design
5

Assemble Final Page

The AI will combine all sections into a cohesive, fully functional page

Real-World Use Cases

  • Pro Creator
  • Small Business
  • Startup Founder
  • Freelance Designer
Portfolio Site DevelopmentScenario: You’ve designed a stunning portfolio layout in Figma and need a fast, pixel-perfect website.Solution: YouWare’s AI reads your Figma design as the single source of truth, generating clean, responsive code that matches your creative vision exactly.Example Prompt:
Convert my Figma portfolio design into a responsive website. 
Here's the link to my hero section: [Figma link]. 
Make sure the typography, spacing, and colors match exactly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Figma integration connects your design files to YouWare’s AI, allowing automatic conversion of visual designs into pixel-perfect, functional web code. You need it when you want to turn design mockups into real websites without manually coding every detail.
No coding knowledge required! Simply copy a link to your Figma design, paste it into YouWare, and the AI generates the code automatically with proper structure and responsive design.
  1. Click your avatar in Figma and select Settings
  2. Go to the Security tab
  3. Scroll to Personal access tokens and click Generate new token
  4. Name it (e.g., “YouWare MCP”), set expiration (90 days recommended)
  5. Enable these scopes: file_content:read, file_dev_resources:read, projects:read
  6. Copy the token immediately (you won’t see it again!)
You need three essential scopes:
  • file_content:read - Allows reading design content and specifications
  • file_dev_resources:read - Allows reading development resources and assets
  • projects:read - Allows reading project structure and organization
We strongly recommend section-by-section conversion for optimal results:
  • Higher accuracy and precision in code generation
  • Better organized code structure with clean boundaries
  • Easier debugging and targeted adjustments
  • Faster iterations on specific sections without affecting others
Yes! YouWare’s AI generates pixel-perfect code matching your Figma design’s typography, spacing, colors, and layout specifications. Section-by-section conversion provides the most accurate results.
Absolutely! The AI recognizes responsive design patterns in your Figma file and generates responsive CSS code that adapts beautifully to different screen sizes and devices.
Simply copy the link to the updated section and regenerate that specific part. The AI will create fresh code based on your latest design changes without affecting other sections.
Yes! You can use any Figma file you have access to, including Community templates. Just make sure to duplicate them to your workspace first so you have full access permissions.
